I hate TPMS sensors!!

I know I'd have a hard time work sans MY center caps

Is it possible to just shoot the damn things with a .38 and go back to taking care of tires the old-fashioned way? I get tired of all the "help" the automakers keep dumping on me.

I agree with you on this one, Steven! I'd pay money just to have the TPMS functionality disabled on my Burb. I don't need sensors telling me when my tires are low. That's what I have an air gauge for that I use anyway cuz I don't 100% trust the DIC read out anyway.

I'm having the same problem. Gonna try to hit the dealer tomorrow; I'll let you know how I make out.

I think they are mandated by some big-brother government bureaucrat.

TPMS only work with 22's guess you made a big mistake.

Hit up the dealer. Its free, quick and easy. Literally took 3 minutes from the time I drove in the service bay to the time I drove out. Didn't take my name, no paperwork, just pulled out the flash tool and took care of it.

and remove your seatbelts too, and your child safety seats too. Since that's what they are designed to do... keep you safe.

There's very little safety aspect to TPMS sensors other than for people who are too lazy to check tire pressure themselves IMO....
